Methyl α-L-Arabinopyranoside (CAS 3945-28-6)
QUICK LINKS
Methyl α-L-Arabinopyranoside is a methyl glycoside present in a variety of plant species. It serves as a useful tool in the investigation of carbohydrate metabolism and the specificity of glycoside hydrolases, enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of glycosidic bonds in glycosides and polysaccharides. By studying the interaction between methyl α-L-arabinopyranoside and various enzymes, researchers can gain insights into the mechanisms of action of these enzymes and the structural features that determine their substrate specificities. Additionally, methyl α-L-arabinopyranoside has applications in synthetic chemistry for the assembly of complex carbohydrates and glycoconjugates. The presence of the methyl group makes it a non-reducing sugar, which can be advantageous in certain synthetic pathways where reducing sugars might undergo unwanted side reactions.
